O hai it is time to come to our party in Washington, DC, because it is tonight (Saturday), at like seven. If previous attendance rates hold up, there will be 10 of you drinking our beer and eating our vittles. (Fishbowl DC said calling our Charlotte Drinky Thing “a party” would be “generous,” because of course they did.) So, you know, don’t come if you don’t want to, DC! YOU DON’T HAVE TO.
In fact, you probably should not come, so San Francisco can continue to hold the Drinky Thing attendance title with their ’bout a hundred people.
Here is where you should not come, tonight, at seven:
The Bottom Line
1716 I (Eye) Street NW
Washington DC 20006
202-298-8488
Red Line to Farragut North
Blue and Orange Line to Farragut West
Saturday, September 8 – 7 p.m.
On deck are Philly on Sept. 11 and NYC Sept. 13. We will update with places and et cetera when we bother figuring that part out. The End.
OR IS IT? From commenter Dean Booth, just cold breaking the news!

Joe would make the Getting Drunk With Wonkette a big fucking deal plus he'd be the entertainment.
You can discuss this interesting video, which shows how George Romney was a apparently a welfare queen:

Is alcohol a necessary part of breaking teh Intertubez, or just a bonus?
Will Joe Biden be a guest commentator for teh Wonket, and, if so, how much will Editrix charge him for the privilege?
Joe Biden is THE original commenter!
I also hope that Joe will share with Editrix the secret access codes for the Federal Windowpane Depository in Bezerkeley.
Coast to coast; polish that bar rail with your vest and make it back to LA soon. So sad to have missed the first drinky thing. P.S. Should Drinky Crow be the event mascot?
Madame Editrix, looks like you have fixed your intertubes. Did you use the Ted Stevens repair manual?
It's an oldie but goodie:
ACHTUNG! ALLES LOOKENSPEEPERS! Das computermachine ist nicht fuer gefingerpoken und mittengrabben. Ist easy schnappen der springenwerk, blowenfusen und poppencorken mit spitzensparken. Ist nicht fuer gewerken bei das dumpkopfen. Das rubbernecken sichtseeren keepen das cotten-pickenen hans in das pockets muss; relaxen und watchen das blinkenlichten.
Joe, Rebecca, and Jim are on the way.

I shore do hope Bo, Luke & Daisy said it was okay to 'borrow' the General Lee?
But then they crashed the car and got rid of Newell. https://picasaweb.google.com/11400799981044075510…
You guys are the greatest. I love you.
Yes!!
Awesome!
That's got my vote for Wonkette Meme of 2012. unf unf unf
Amongst us, there is no such thing as a gaffe.
But there is the implicit rule, "don't blow the gaff."
Please let us know if Joe is coming. I'd get on the Acela for that.
I'd fly up from DFW. Would pay to attend that. Okay, a few buck, but I will pay.
And can we pleez haz a drinky thing in Lost Angeles someday?
They haven't HAD that yet? Doesn't Rebecca live there?
LA got the very first one! Everyone else was so mad!
Thank goodness I have a short memory. Due to the drinking.
I'm still hoping for an encore–a post-election victory party. I'll kick in for some of the beer costs if that helps…
Me too, except for kicking in for beer.
It wasn't MAD, so much as hurt, and envious, and the feelings of inadequacy, like maybe their buildings weren't the right height.
The term you're groping for is "butthurt."
How about Barstow, then? I'd travel as far as Barstow.
What about that Bukowski dive bar tour of San Pedro? I might just drag my ass out of the desert for that.. Maybe Ken Layne would come too because banks are snatching houses up in his neck of the Joshua trees.
Yes! The Bukowski Memorial Bar Crawl in Pedro. The Rebel, Indian Room,The Spot, June's, Harolds, Godmother, Enigma (formerly Dancing Waters) !
And definitely a post-election celebration so we can toast Romney's defeat!
Should I be embarrassed to admit that I don't know who is driving the car?
Oh, it's Jim! Sorry, Newell, but you're just slightly less famous than Joe & Becca.
He doesn't take nearly enough photos of himself in sexy red dresses, if you ask me.
No, no, really, that one time was plenty.
Gee,I don't know D.C. is a ruff town.The highest crime rate in America Murders,thieves,cutthroats,prostitution,rape,and infidelity,and that's just Congressmen. I don't think it's safe.
It's okay. In D.C., we keep the politicians in fund raising containment cages.
For those attending, please keep an eye on our dear Editrix. Acid has only one use, and that is for cleaning out the Wonkette INTERNET Pipes(we have seen how they clog), and is not for INTERNAL use (and god forbid she is eating those little desiccant sachets too). Please follow package directions more closely. We worry….
I would like to give a shout out to Rebecca's liver. You've been a champ!
Rebecca has the liver of ten men!
I hope they are in the freezer….
Now we know where that "woke up in bathtub filled with ice" internet legend began.
Hope he does, and brings Dr. Jill with him. Have a BALL!
At least DC Fishbowl mentioned the fried chichen at the Wonkette drinky thing in Charlotte!
Uh-oh, looks like Ol Handsome Joe is up to his old tricks.
I can't wait to put a few mimosas on Joe's tab.
Joe's tab will have LSD-25 on it already.
It is a well known fact that acid corrodes the tubes in the internets.
Unless it's pure LSD-25. That stuff makes the tubes all sparkly.
In the picture Joey looks elated to be next to editrix whilst Jim seems annoyed.
I find myself
fappingwondering at the possible explanation.It's all about jobs, jobs, jobs. Or so I hear.
I heard Joe can drink 24 cans of beer without barfing.
Hope our editrix's credit card has a high limit.
Is that a police car behind you guys? Quick, hide the stuff!
No worries- it's just Boss Hogg. He won't catch 'em.
Have fun, DC. It ain't the quantity, it's who you know…or something like that.
Unleash the editrix! And the Biden!
"Release" stupid. Sorry, not drunk yet..
I don't know, Kitty with a whip and a leash is working for me.
Yeah, so I'm in New Delhi for the month. Free warm Kingfishers for anyone who wants to watch the first debate.
I eagerly await the next Editrix Trip Report.
And just now, DC got slapped with a severe thunderstorm watch, through 10 PM.
F-ing anti-Wonkette conspiracy. Obama should apologize.
Quaffing brewskis with Joe the Hammer Biden reminds me of a joke I just wrote. Stop me if you've heard this one before:
Mitt Romney walks into a bar.
He says "Bartender, I'll have a Coke."
That would violate his Mormon faith, which forbids caffeine.
If you subscribe to the philosophy of Davy Crockett, when one walks into a bar, the bar will rip your face off.
Unless you done kilt it first.
with a Jew and a Protestant.
Paul Ryan ducked, then offered him a health care voucher.
*Ba-dum-bump!*
Thank you, thank you! I'll be here all week!
Just remember that if you're groped by a DPS officer…..
“If you wouldn’t have been there that night, none of this would have happened,”
sez Coconino County Superior Court Judge Jacqueline Hatch.
Judge Hatch later said, "Ooops."
http://azdailysun.com/news/local/crime-and-courts…
You see, if Judge Hatch hadn't been up on that bench, wearing those slutty robes, she wouldn't have said stupid shit to people. So, she is kind of Exhibit Dickhead in this trial.
Up for re-election in 2014….
So, Jim didn't quit? Good on you Trixie for using your feminine wiles to convince him to stay.
I think it's really cool the way you get to write off binge drinking as a business expense.
I somehow imagine you in a slinky Hollywood Golden Era gown, draped across a piano with a glass of champagne and saying things like "oh no, please don't ask me to sing", even though nobody has. Kind of like that SNL skit.
You know that DC folks will lurk in the corner so as to not have their photos taken. Because, ummm, we're all very super duper important here and cannot be seen cavorting with the likes of Wonkette. (Look for me, the super hot girl (in my mind), hiding in the corner.)
Found you. Hiding in the corner. You were super hot.
PS. Wasn't ol' Handsome Joe a riot? That dude had the whole place rolling on the floor, didn't he?
I laughed so hard that I think I peed a little. Totally worth the pat down from the Secret Service.
Joe thinks I'm super hot too.
Fuck it, I'll be there. I just have to squeeze in a marathon.
Oh fuck, I've been moving today and I only have 2 hours to return the truck, get cleaned up, and get my ass down to I st.
<edit>Also I need to eat</edit>
Won't there be, y'know, food there?
I was hoping to avoid the bar food.
In atlanta( bought it myself) – I had grilled salmon- it was good- I did not eat. TheTexas toast side dish. There were also chips & I thnk guacamole and hummus and salsa that Rebecca paid for( I decided not to try to stick her with my dinner bill as I still have a decent Pension- unless mittens gets in- then I'll be the craft lady at ac moore)
So it's just gonna be ColHeightsChic, Editrix and me?
The word "just" should never be combined with "ColHeightsChic."
It was larger than that. I really enjoyed talking to you. Sorry I couldn't hear you all that well with that damned speaker blaring in my ear all night that damned noise that the damned kids listen to these damned days.
Ah crap, I don't remember meeting any young gents (gals?) named gullywompr. I should pay better attention next time. But I'm sure I thoroughly enjoyed talking to you too! (Unless you were actually responding to wsbloodystump, in which case, :-(
Well, nobody's accused me of being young in several years. I believe I was one of the oldest people there. We may not have met, in which case :-(
Or, perhaps, you actually introduced yourself with a human-type name?
So … no pictures from Charlotte? Or was it so lame the pictures were destroyed out of embarrassment?
I can tell from the pic our editrix has talented hands.
Damn It! The ONE time I go out of town and you hold a Drinky Thing near home. Hmpf. The husband and I could have increased your attendance numbers by 20%.
Sorry, folks. A big storm and Metro closures kept me in the suburbs.
Yes, my daughter took the s bus downtown to work and then told me because of the storm, took the shuttle bus from hell from DuPont to Noma. The last time I took a weekend shuttle w/ her she told me sales of prescription drugs were being discussed(not by pharma reps)- I had no idea-young people talk funny. I am out of town but I heard power was lost in various parts of MC & DC
That was a great time at The Bottom Line Saturday night! Thanks for the free drinks and the free food, and the trivia contest was fun!
I was glad to see that most of the women who attended did not wear bras!
I was also extremely thankful for that late-night bathroom stall lap-dance and "happy endings" massage by Wonketter "Kandi Chokolate Apples." That was fun! The Bottom Line has some very private bathroom stalls! And those guys in the next stall–try to sniff and snort a bit more quietly when you take those "ski trips" on those "snow-covered" mountains!
Thanks for taking the party about 1 a.m. to Good Guys, Camelot, J.P.'s, The Royal Palace and The Hung Jury! That was a blast! J.P.'s is truly one of the classiest, most stylish strip clubs in the entire Washington, D.C., metropolitan region!
That was a fun night!
That's IT!
You're a generous person, trying to offer up an alternative & all, but I really am not a young. If you met a bearded guy with grey on the chin, that was me.
